Answer:

The slope is 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x+8y = 30

Add 5x to each side

8y = 5x+30

Divide by 8

8y/8 = 5/8x+30/8

y = 5/8x + 15/4

This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 5/8

Answer: 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first need to put the equation into standard form. so you add 5x on both sides

Then you divide 8 on both sides

that would give you y=5/8x+3.75

The slope is 5/8
